Orlik killer?
April 13, 2025
By: Monte S.
Product: BriarWorks Back Down South 2oz
This is only the third tobacco that has earned the honors of 5 full stars from me. It's like a fruitier Orlik. Tin note is of apples and plums. First light is sweet grassy hay but by the third puff the aromas are awakened. Tart without being overbearing, blends nicely with the sweetgrass of the virginia. Very smooth. Halfway down, the sweet hay of the virginias turn richer, almost baconey. Fruit taste still present (not a sickly aro-type fruit taste, not artificial tasting at all). Perique does it job, adding depth. Starts to get a little spicy. The tongue tingles. Can smoke all the way to the bottom with ease. Not a trace of bite. A small amount of teeth squeakiness that I assume will go away with age, but nothing that detracts. Very nice indeed....Read More

Used to be Best American VaPer
March 20, 2024
By: Henrikas M.
Product: BriarWorks Back Down South 2oz
It’s quite full flavoured. Spicy figgy perique, sweet virginias with light topping which always stays in the background and doesn’t overshadow tobacco taste. Mason jar is a huge plus. Can’t go wrong with this if you like vapers, unless you’re a vaper purist and don’t like toppings. Update - current batch is shredded broken flake, -1 star for lowet quality...Read More

This tastes like if you opened a tin of Orlik in a nail salon and forgot about it for a few days.

Wonderful!

The first jar I had of this was aged around 4 years. It had a wonderful note of sweet lemongrass, that I haven’t found so prominent in any other Va/Per aged or fresh.

Jar note of spiced figs and tart Rasins. Tobacco broken flakes rub out easily. The dark brown tobacco is on the wet side, drying is needed. Burns slow with a few extra relights. The strength is medium and nic is medium. No flavoring that I could discern, if there is flavoring, it muddled. Taste is medium to full and inconsistent, with notes of dry earth, bitter wood, prunes, very spicy, mild tangy fruit, mildly sweet Rasin bread, mildly floral, mild spice, a bitter plum background note, and a spicy retro. Perique is leading with Virginias supporting from afar. Room note is tolerable, and aftertaste is ok....Read More

Product: BriarWorks Back Down South 2oz
This blend smells and tastes like Iwan Ries 3 star Blue. Sweet whiskey smell and taste. Just about 20 minutes drying time. Mason jar is a nice touch. I ama perique smoker. This blend is very tasty and satisfying.

Very nice tobacco
September 11, 2022
By: JoeMcK
Product: BriarWorks Back Down South 2oz
If you’re on the fence about purchasing this tobacco, do it. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite tobaccos. On opening the container, I was impressed with the aromas of raisin and plum, with a faint bourbon-corn-sweetness. It’s a soft flake, easily broken apart. Smoking gives a soft, sweet bourbon note with soft apple and fruit tones. Definitely a smooth smoke if kept very cool. Highly recommend this product....Read More

The Right Amount.
April 02, 2022
By: Jim
Product: BriarWorks Back Down South 2oz
I found this to be a perfects balance of Virgina and Perique, I get the wonderful sweetness of the Virgina with just the right amount of Perique Spice. Often, for me there can be too much Perique and I find it too peppery. You won't find that here, a fantastic blend that I highly recommend. Could be an all-day smoke....Read More
